Let's do some quick and (very) dirty math, given "current conditions".
* We have 1174 pilots on the seniority list.
* About half of those pilots are First Officers, (587).
* Upgrades are currently running at 4 per month.
* If all of those f/o's hang around long enough to upgrade, today's new hire is looking at 12.2 years to upgrade.
* If 75% of our current f/o's stick it out long enough to upgrade, today's new hire is looking at 9.1 years to upgrade.
* If only 50% of our f/o's stay long enough to upgrade, today's new hire is looking at 6.1 years 'till upgrade.
Your mileage may vary.
